Open RSU Tax Calculator →RSU vesting in Indiana triggers a flat 2.95% state income tax, treated as ordinary income just like your salary. Your employer typically sells shares at vesting to cover the combined federal, state, and FICA withholding, which can consume 35-50% of the vested shares depending on your income level. Local taxes in some Indiana areas increase the sell-to-cover percentage further. This calculator shows you exactly how many shares (or dollars) you keep after all Indiana tax layers are applied.
Indiana levies a flat 2.95% state income tax on all taxable income regardless of how much you earn. This makes tax planning straightforward: for every additional dollar you earn, 2.95 cents goes to Indiana. However, certain localities in Indiana impose their own income taxes, which effectively raise the combined state and local rate above 2.95%. Be sure to check whether your city or county adds a local income tax.
